Chapter 1104: Color Revolution!
Free Nation, White Palace, President's Office.
The sun was bright outside the window; the President held his coffee cup, looking at the scene of pedestrians walking their dogs outside, and listening to the report from his secretary, Shi Misi.
"Mr. President! General Li Qiwei from the front line has sent a battle report: our side previously surprised the northwest corner of the Dragon Nation's control area, attempting to use a blitzkrieg to tear open a gap."
"But unfortunately, the Dragon Nation's resistance was too tenacious, and a large number of reinforcements arrived quickly!"
"This tentative exchange did not achieve the expected results…"
"Mm."
President Baideng took a sip of coffee, a dim and uncertain look flashing in his eyes.
This battle was destined not to be so smooth.
Therefore, it stood to reason that Li Qiwei's military action did not achieve the expected results.
After all, if the Dragon Nation were really that easy to deal with, he wouldn't have suffered so many big setbacks before!
The reason Baideng chose to launch the war at this time.
Besides the fact that the oil gap was indeed too large.
The upcoming midterm elections in the Free Nation were also a very important reason.
After several miserable defeats, his approval rating in the Free Nation had dropped to an outrageous level.
His competitor, Chuan Jianguo, was now eyeing him covetously, and his approval rating was nearly twenty percentage points higher than his own.
It could be said that as soon as the midterm elections started, he, Baideng, would definitely lose!
Once Chuan Jianguo took office, all his previous layouts and plans would be destroyed!
Therefore, Baideng chose this juncture to actively provoke the war.
Because according to the Free Nation's constitution, as long as the nation is in a state of large-scale war, the incumbent President can skip the midterm elections and continue his term unconditionally.
Baideng drank the coffee in his cup in one gulp.
Then he placed the coffee cup gently on the table.
"Tell Li Qiwei that this is a large-scale war; there is no need to be in a hurry for anything…"
"Okay!"
Shi Misi on the side nodded upon hearing this and recorded Baideng's words in his notebook in detail.
"Right!"
Baideng's voice came again.
"How is the domestic military industry recovering now?"
"Can the soldiers' supplies be supplied?"
"Report to the President, everything is normal."
Shi Misi pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and continued to add.
"Currently, our military factories have begun to operate at full capacity! Our advanced war equipment is manufactured in Latin America, and we take materials from Latin America and the Maple Leaf Nation, and then have them assembled by those countries in the European Alliance!"
"Of course, the core technology always remains in the hands of our Free Nation. The most core parts of the equipment are manufactured by our Free Nation!"
"Production has been fully ramped up!"
"The scale of this industrial chain is no worse than the Dragon Nation's! And the workers are all proficient in the manufacture of military equipment!"
"The entire Free State and European Alliance are our own backyard; with the Dragon Nation's military industry standard!"
"Right now, they are far from being our opponent!"
Listening to Shi Misi's firm voice.
Baideng on the side also nodded gently.
This is also the root cause of why the Free Nation dares to fight, knowing that the Dragon Nation possesses the strongest industrial system on the entire Blue Star.
After so many years of so-called economic globalization.
The Free Nation had long since firmly grasped the Maple Leaf Nation to the north and the various Latin American countries to the south in its hands!
The Free Nation lacks labor and labor is expensive, but Latin America doesn't lack it!
The Free Nation lacks resources, but now that it occupies an entire Free State continent, occupying nearly a quarter of Blue Star's land, what resources don't they have?
Plus the advanced industrial system of the European Alliance!
